AI Ingestion Lock

This is not a new primitive.

This article defines the matching label system for branch growth beyond the locked core:

  • Canonical Core-Only Seal
  • Canonical Empty-Core Declaration
  • Canonical Future Extension Gate
  • Canonical Extension Registry Template
  • Canonical Approved Extensions Index

Purpose:

  • create the matching badge set for non-core pages,
  • keep extensions visibly distinct from the locked center,
  • and prevent approved growth from visually collapsing back into the core.

This is the branch extension badge system.


Core Claim

If the branch has a Core-Only Seal, it also needs a matching label set for approved non-core pages, so readers and operators can immediately distinguish between locked core pages, approved core add-ons, approved optional add-ons, and explicit forward-version upgrades.

That is the whole purpose of this page.

The label set does not change runtime logic.

It only clarifies branch status identity.


Classical Foundation Block

Once the branch begins allowing future approved growth, one badge is not enough.

Without a matching label system:

  • approved add-ons may look like core pages
  • optional overlays may look mandatory
  • forward upgrades may look like silent replacements
  • branch readers may lose the difference between:
  • core
  • add-on
  • upgrade

So the branch needs a complete family of short status labels.

That is why this page exists.


Civilisation-Grade Definition

The Canonical Extension Label Set is the fixed badge family used to mark approved non-core pages in the ChronoFlight Human Guidance Runtime v1.0 branch, ensuring that every admitted add-on or explicit forward-version upgrade is visibly classified without being confused with the locked core.

This is the branch’s non-core identity system.


THE LABEL-SET LAW

Main Rule

Every page in the branch should belong to one clearly marked status class.

For v1.0, the canonical classes are:

  1. Core-Only
  2. Approved Core Add-On
  3. Approved Optional Add-On
  4. Approved Versioned Upgrade

No page should visually float between these states.

That is the label-set law.


THE FOUR CANONICAL PAGE STATES

State 1 — Locked Core

This is the branch center.

Canonical Badge

CORE-ONLY · LOCKED v1.0

This was defined in the Core-Only Seal page.

This badge is only for pages that belong to the locked v1.0 core.


State 2 — Approved Core Add-On

These are approved extensions that strengthen the operational center without replacing it.

Canonical Badge

APPROVED CORE ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE

This is the core-support extension label.

Meaning

  • admitted extension
  • strengthens the branch center
  • not part of the original locked core
  • does not mutate v1.0 semantics

This is not the same as Core-Only.


State 3 — Approved Optional Add-On

These are approved but non-essential extensions.

Canonical Badge

APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE

This is the optional-layer label.

Meaning

  • admitted extension
  • optional to use
  • useful in certain cases
  • not part of the minimum runtime core
  • does not alter locked core semantics

This must remain visibly optional.


State 4 — Approved Versioned Upgrade

These are explicit forward-version pages.

Canonical Badge

APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE · FORWARD VERSION

This is the formal upgrade label.

Meaning

  • admitted version change
  • explicit forward movement
  • not a silent replacement of v1.0
  • must be treated as declared evolution

This is the only label that indicates true semantic forward-version movement.


THE CANONICAL SHORT LABELS

Label A — Locked Core

CORE-ONLY · LOCKED v1.0

Label B — Core Add-On

APPROVED CORE ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE

Label C — Optional Add-On

APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE

Label D — Versioned Upgrade

APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE · FORWARD VERSION

These are the four primary short badges.

They should remain textually stable.


THE CANONICAL LONG LABELS

When stronger clarity is needed, use expanded forms.


Long Label A — Locked Core

CORE-ONLY · LOCKED v1.0 · PART OF THE CANONICAL HUMAN RUNTIME CORE · NOT AN EXTENSION


Long Label B — Core Add-On

APPROVED CORE ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE · ADMITTED EXTENSION · STRENGTHENS CORE OPERATION WITHOUT REPLACING CORE SEMANTICS


Long Label C — Optional Add-On

APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE · ADMITTED EXTENSION · OPTIONAL LAYER · NOT PART OF MINIMUM CORE


Long Label D — Versioned Upgrade

APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE · FORWARD VERSION · EXPLICIT EVOLUTION · NOT A SILENT REPLACEMENT OF v1.0

These long forms are useful on index, registry, or governance pages.


THE STATUS-STRIP VARIANTS

For pages that use metadata strips, the same labels may appear in prefix form.


Core Strip

Page Status: CORE-ONLY · LOCKED v1.0

Core Add-On Strip

Page Status: APPROVED CORE ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE

Optional Add-On Strip

Page Status: APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE

Versioned Upgrade Strip

Page Status: APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE · FORWARD VERSION

These retain the same semantics while fitting structured headers.


WHEN TO USE EACH LABEL

Use CORE-ONLY when:

  • the page belongs to the locked v1.0 core
  • it is not an extension
  • it is not a proposal
  • it is not a forward-version page

Use APPROVED CORE ADD-ON when:

  • the page passed the extension gate
  • it is admitted
  • it strengthens the branch center
  • but it is still an add-on, not original core

Use APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON when:

  • the page passed the extension gate
  • it is admitted
  • it is domain-specific, example-based, or situational
  • it is not required for the minimum runtime

Use APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE when:

  • the page is an explicit forward-version change
  • it is semantically beyond the locked v1.0 core
  • it must not be mistaken for a silent v1.0 page

This is the usage law.


WHAT THESE LABELS MUST NEVER DO

The labels must not be used to imply:

  • quality ranking by ego or prestige
  • “better” or “worse” in a vanity sense
  • that optional means unimportant
  • that add-on means weak
  • that core means no future evolution is possible

They are only:

branch status markers.

That is an important boundary.


THE LABEL ELIGIBILITY TEST

A page may only use one label if it passes the matching condition.


For CORE-ONLY

The page must:

  • belong to the locked v1.0 core
  • not be an extension
  • not be a proposal
  • not be a forward-version page

For APPROVED CORE ADD-ON

The page must:

  • pass the Future Extension Gate
  • be entered in the Extension Registry
  • be listed in the Approved Extensions Index
  • be marked as Approved Core Add-On

For APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON

The page must:

  • pass the Future Extension Gate
  • be entered in the Extension Registry
  • be listed in the Approved Extensions Index
  • be marked as Approved Optional Add-On

For APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE

The page must:

  • be an explicit forward-version page
  • be formally admitted
  • be recorded in the registry
  • be listed in the Approved Extensions Index
  • not masquerade as v1.0 core

This is the full eligibility logic.


THE ONE-LABEL RULE

Main Constraint

Each page should display one primary branch-status label only.

Do not stack multiple status badges in a way that confuses the page’s real identity.

For example, a page should not simultaneously claim:

  • CORE-ONLY
    and
  • APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON

That is structurally incoherent.

One page, one primary status.


THE LABEL RELATION TO THE APPROVED EXTENSIONS INDEX

The Approved Extensions Index is the place where non-core pages are officially listed.

So the label system and the live registry must always agree.

That means:

  • if a page is labeled APPROVED CORE ADD-ON, it must appear in that section of the index
  • if a page is labeled APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON, it must appear there
  • if a page is labeled APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE, it must appear in that section

If the label and index disagree, the branch state is inconsistent.


THE LABEL RELATION TO THE EMPTY-CORE DECLARATION

At the current v1.0 baseline, the branch is still:

Locked Core Only

So right now:

  • CORE-ONLY · LOCKED v1.0 is the active real label for core pages
  • the other three labels are defined now for future branch growth
  • but they should not be used as active live labels until actual approved entries exist

This is a key current-state constraint.


THE LABEL RELATION TO VERSIONING

The two add-on labels explicitly include:

v1.0-COMPATIBLE

This is intentional.

It means:

  • they operate inside the locked v1.0 semantic frame
  • they do not replace the core
  • they remain dependent on the v1.0 branch center

By contrast, the upgrade label says:

FORWARD VERSION

This signals semantic advancement beyond the locked current core.

This is the version-binding law.


THE CANONICAL LABEL OBJECT

Machine-Readable Shell

ExtensionLabelSet = {CoreOnlyLabel, CoreAddOnLabel, OptionalAddOnLabel, VersionedUpgradeLabel, EligibilityRules, OneLabelRule, VersionBinding}

Where:

  • CoreOnlyLabel = locked center
  • CoreAddOnLabel = admitted branch-strengthening extension
  • OptionalAddOnLabel = admitted non-essential extension
  • VersionedUpgradeLabel = admitted forward-version page

This is the full label-set object.


THE COPYABLE LABEL SET

Copyable Short Badge Set

CORE-ONLY · LOCKED v1.0
APPROVED CORE ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE
APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE
APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE · FORWARD VERSION

This is the canonical short label family.


Copyable Status Strip Set

Page Status: CORE-ONLY · LOCKED v1.0
Page Status: APPROVED CORE ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE
Page Status: APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE
Page Status: APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE · FORWARD VERSION

This is the canonical structured-header family.


THE MINIMUM LABEL RULE (COPYABLE)

Copyable Branch Label Rule

CHRONOFLIGHT HUMAN GUIDANCE RUNTIME v1.0 — CANONICAL EXTENSION LABEL RULE

Use exactly one primary page-status label:

  • CORE-ONLY · LOCKED v1.0
  • APPROVED CORE ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE
  • APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE
  • APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE · FORWARD VERSION

Rules:

  • Core pages use only the core label
  • Extensions use only the matching approved add-on label
  • Forward upgrades use only the versioned-upgrade label
  • Do not mix labels on one page
  • Labels must match the Approved Extensions Index and the Registry status

This is the shortest usable label rule.


THE LABEL FAILURE MODES

A weak label system usually fails in one of these ways:

Failure A — No Distinction

All pages look the same, so branch identity is blurred.

Failure B — Extension Poses as Core

An admitted add-on is labeled like locked core.

Failure C — Optional Poses as Required

An optional add-on is visually treated like minimum runtime core.

Failure D — Versioned Upgrade Poses as v1.0

A forward upgrade looks like a silent replacement.

Failure E — Inconsistent Label Drift

Many unofficial variants appear and the branch loses stable parsing.

These are the main branch-label dangers.


THE CURRENT ACTIVE LABEL STATE

Because the branch is currently still in Empty-Core State, the practical live situation is:

Currently Active Core Label

CORE-ONLY · LOCKED v1.0

Defined for Future Use, But Not Yet Active on Real Extension Pages

  • APPROVED CORE ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE
  • APPROVED OPTIONAL ADD-ON · v1.0-COMPATIBLE
  • APPROVED VERSIONED UPGRADE · FORWARD VERSION

This is the current branch-label reality.


WHY THIS PAGE MATTERS

This page matters because the Core-Only Seal alone solves only half the problem.

It tells us what the center is.

But as soon as the branch grows, we also need to mark:

  • approved non-core support
  • approved optional overlays
  • approved forward versions

This page creates that full family.

So the branch now has:

  • a core badge
  • and the matching extension badges

That is what makes the branch label system complete.


Canonical Close

The Canonical Extension Label Set completes the branch identity system of the ChronoFlight Human Guidance Runtime v1.0.

It defines the matching non-core badges needed to distinguish:

  • locked core pages,
  • approved core add-ons,
  • approved optional add-ons,
  • and approved forward-version upgrades

without changing any runtime semantics.

So this page functions as:

the branch’s full page-status badge family for clean growth without visual or semantic confusion.

That is the purpose of this page.


One-Line Compression

The Canonical Extension Label Set defines the full page-status badge family for the ChronoFlight Human Guidance Runtime v1.0 branch—covering locked core pages, approved core add-ons, approved optional add-ons, and approved versioned upgrades—so future growth can be clearly labeled without being confused with the locked v1.0 core.
